DDs 1 and 2 love colouring in things and drawing their own pictures. DD1 was colouring within the lines probably half way through kindy, so about 4+4. DD2 does what she has always done and fought like ctazy to do what her big sister does, so has been colouring in the lines by 3.5. She is just over 4 and is an incredibly careful colourer and never scribbles, but that is very much reflective of her character. Everything must be neat, and she must use appropriate colours - eg a picture she draws of our dog must be black, Dora must have orange shorts etc
